This video is a couple of days old now, but it's still impressive. Daredevil Guerlain Chicherit pulled off a backflip in a Mini in Tignes, France, and watching it go down is pretty incredible.

Roddick jumps in rankings

American tennis player Andy Roddick stepped away from the game when he lost to Juan Martin del Porto in the U.S. Open last year. Roddick hasn't played in a match since, but he's still managing to climb the rankings board.

New world rankings were released, and the retired player jumped from 42 to 40. The rankings look at the last 52 weeks of play, and Roddick managed to win some matches during that time period, which is what boosted his ranking. But it still doesn't seem right that a guy who no longer plays the sport is jumping active players.

Winter free running in Utah

Professional free runner Ronnie Shalvis pulls off his impressive tricks and flips in the winter wonderland known as Utah.
